October OTR Weekend 2021

An all-star mix of horror, humor, and pirates for this month's edition. Ruth Gordon stars in Columbia Workshop's Murder in Studio One; William Conrad is manly Matt Dillon in Gunsmoke; Orson Welles hams it up in Mercury Theater's Treasure Island; Dick Powell sleuths dry as the driest martini as Richard Diamond; Bette Davis puts Bob Hope in his place; Errol Flynn puts Olivia DeHavilland in hers in Lux's Captain Blood; Mary Livingstone cracks wise with Jack Benny, as does Marian with hubby Jim Jordan as Fibber McGee and Molly, Peggy Lee and Benny Carter swing on Jubilee, and Lauren Bacall with Bogie in Bold Venture. Arrrr, me mateys!
